A 1963 Ferrari 250 GTO, chassis no. 4675 GT, is officially off the market. RM Auctions recently sold the rarity through a private sale. The sale price was not disclosed.

One of only 36 Ferrari 250 GTOs ever produced, the car is one of the few with Series II GTO bodywork.

"The exclusivity of Ferrari's 250 GTO cannot be understated," said Max Girardo, managing director of RM Europe. "As they rarely come to market, new owners become part of a very exclusive club and are welcomed with open arms at literally any of the world's great concours events, races and rallies. . . . It's fantastic that this car will now be used in earnest on the classic-car scene around Europe."

With the GTO making 302 hp at 7,500 rpm and having a top speed of 174 mph, the 4675 GT has been raced by drivers including Guido Fossati, Jean Guichet, Oddone Sigala, Vincenzo Nember and Luigi Taramazzo.
